Blah blah blah, technicalities and crap.

Fujishima Kosuke owns AMG and its characters. I own Xerangref and Daisen, Kruss, Kyuss and Shantar (previous statements about using all of them stand).

A/N: 2nd part fiction continuing off Happiness' End. If you haven't read the first story, stop right now and go do so.

This fiction will generally be more light-hearted and comedic (and maybe more mushy) than HE.

Thaylien: Sadly, over the last two weeks that was my main idea for chapter one. Every other day, or every three days I'd open the file, type a few sentences and close it. Just didn't have the inspiration and desire to write when I was distracted.

Now that all that is out of the way, time for some writing to take place.

Destiny's Beginning

End of Chapter 1:

After things settled into finality, Urd looked at Belldandy and Keiichi with a serious face.

"Well then! If our new accomplice needs help, help he shall receive! I'd be more than happy to help you out in your task Belldandy. After all, it could be fun!"

Keiichi groaned and put his head into his hands, "This can't be happening to me…"

Urd slapped him on the back, "Cheer up Keiichi! After all, what could go wrong?"

"Famous last words, Urd…famous last words…"

Chapter 2: Problems in Paradise

After the meeting with both Kami-sama and the three sisters, everyone had agreed to simply take the rest of the day off to relax and try to catch up. Not that there were many things they needed to catch up on.

After just chit-chatting for a while, Keiichi had finally asked about the classification system that they used. He wasn't at all sure about it. Having a connection to Yggdrasil simply provided him power and little information. Information that was needed in order to actually fit in around the heavens.

In lack of a better term, Keiichi was the odd one out. No experience, no knowledge, no power, no authority, no reputation, no nothing.

The only ones that previously heard of him totaled nine people. Ten if they counted Thor, but it was unlikely to count a council member in such a crude tally.

Actually, that wasn't true at all. Everyone in the heavens had heard of him…as a mortal. The mortal who had seemingly won Belldandy over by being himself. Many of the gods still despised that fact.

Keiichi seemed a bit perplexed when he learned that he would have to learn how to fight. And not simply just learn how to fight; he would have to learn how to be exceptional at fighting.

The other parts that seemed to be meshed in his training didn't seem to bother him. After all, he had already fulfilled some of those qualifications by being an active member of the NIT:MCC.

Even though he was disturbed by the idea of learning to fight, Keiichi had agreed to accept both Daisen and Lind as instructors. Daisen had already given his consent to help, but Lind was unknown.

After that particular discussion was finished and laid to rest, a new one sparked.

Where were they all going to live? Keiichi knew that Belldandy, Urd and Skuld all had separate quarters near each other, but he had been given no such living assignment. He also doubted that anyone would allow him staying in Belldandy's little three room quarters.

For some strange reason, Belldandy had insisted that he not worry about anything of the sort. She had stated that she would take care of any matter regarding his residence.

While Keiichi was somewhat comforted, he was also a tad nervous and anxious. Exactly what did Belldandy have planned?

Before Keiichi could worry about it further, Urd volunteered to show him around various places to get him suited to the environment. Skuld had agreed to tag along as well, leaving Belldandy alone to arrange whatever she needed.

Before Keiichi could get a word in edgewise, he was dragged out of the room by Urd while Skuld followed the both of them.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Keiichi was in awe as he looked around the various places Urd literally dragged him to. So far in their little 'tour,' Urd had showed him the outdoors hot spring, the massive meditation gardens and, oddly enough, the Goddess Mall.

Most of the previous areas had been near empty, so Keiichi didn't really notice anything that he thought was odd. But as they continued on into the more populated places in Heaven, Keiichi began to notice that more and more of his peers were giving him odd looks. A few of them even glared at him as he passed.

As he turned to ask Urd what she thought was going on, he noticed that she was glaring right back at them. Looking at her facial expression that was twisted into what looked like a snarl; he decided to hold the questions for later, and out of earshot range of anyone around. Keiichi glanced to his side next to look at Skuld. As he glanced at her smaller form, he could see her frowning at both her sister and the others involved in the intense staring match.

Keiichi sighed and seemed to dip slightly as they continued on. He glanced at both of his escorts continuously through the rest of the tour.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Keiichi looked around the area that Urd had ordered them to stop at. Not seeing anything especially eye-catching, he turned to look at Urd with a confused look. She smiled back at him and tilted her head slightly.

"What's the matter K-boy?"

"Why'd we stop? There's nothing around here."

Urd sighed and shook her heard, "Not very observant are you?"

"Huh?"

He only looked at his guide in confusion as she grinned. As he continued to look at Urd, he could also see something behind her. He moved his head off to the side slightly as he looked at the huge building that stood in the background.

"About time you noticed."

Keiichi looked down at Skuld, only to find her smiling with a hint of amusement in her eyes.

He seemed to frown slightly as he looked at the two of them, "Still the butt end of your jokes am I?"

"Why should that change? So many things have changed over the past few days, why should us being together be any different?"

Keiichi scratched the side of his head, "Yea, I guess. So what is that place?"

"Laissez-le soin moi, Urd, mon ami."

Keiichi cringed as he heard the voice and felt a pair of arms drape themselves around his neck.

Keiichi shifted slightly so that he was looking into a pair of chocolate brown eyes. He seemed to hesitate slightly before grinning nervously, "Nice to see you again too, Peorth."

"Ah, but why that reaction, Keiichi mon amour?"

Urd rolled her eyes and began to walk away, "Remember flower girl, if you do anything to Keiichi, Belldandy won't be so happy. And quit with the lover stuff."

Peorth stuck her tongue out at Urd and turned back to Keiichi, "Pay no mind to Urd, she is aucun amusement."

Keiichi seemed to gulp as he soon spotted Skuld following her sister. That meant that he'd be alone…with Peorth…in the middle of no where.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Skuld looked at her sister questioningly as they stopped a short ways away from where Keiichi and Peorth were.

"What's that look for, brat?"

"Are you sure it's really wise to leave her alone with Keiichi? I mean, considering the past between the two of them and Belldandy."

Urd shrugged, "Let the girl have a little fun. Plus, I wanna see Keiichi sweat a little. It might be fun."

Skuld sighed, "Sometimes, I wonder who the eldest of us is…"

Urd glared at her youngest sister, "And just what is that supposed to mean?"

"Just as it sounded, oh dearest sister of mine."

"Watch it kid, or I might have to do something you wouldn't like."

Skuld, once again, stuck her tongue out at Urd before she crossed her arms and sighed.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Quel est erroné Keiichi, mon amour?"

Keiichi continued to look for a way out of Peorth's embrace. He'd tried every possible means of escape aside from simply just asking. That thought seemed like the best option at this moment, lest something bad happen.

"Uh…Peorth?"

"Oui, Keiichi?"

"Could you…you know…let me go for a second?"

"Just un moment longer, mon ami."

Keiichi turned his head to glance at her, and noticed a few tears lingering at the corners of her eyes.

"Is something wrong Peorth?"

Peorth looked at him and smiled, "Please, do not pull such a arrêt dangereux again. You had all of us worried."

Peorth's arms slowly fell from his neck to his hands as she grasped each of them.

He looked at her in surprise, only to find she was wearing a friendly smile. He responded with a typical goofy grin as she let go and they turned and started walking.

"So how do you like it here, Keiichi?"

Keiichi looked around until his eyes, once again, settled on the huge building in the background.

"It isn't that bad, I guess. But what is that place?"

Peorth followed his gaze to the Yggdrasil building, "Ah, so you've seen our peu headquarters."

Keiichi looked at her a little oddly for referring to it as being small, but didn't respond to it.

"Headquarters?"

"Oui, it is where we-"

"Monitor everything that goes on in the system. Anything that's supported by the system is monitored there, including Earth."

Peorth frowned at Urd as she walked towards them.

"It's where I used to work at Peorth still works, right flower girl?"

"Oui, the Yggdrasil command building holds beaucoup positions. It is where Belldandy used to work aussi bien."

"So…why are we here?"

"To give you a view of where you'll be working when you finally get things rolling."

Keiichi seemed startled, "Huh? I have to work in there? Why?"

"Well…you are the God of Eternity. You'll probably be working in several locations with the higher ups."

Keiichi seemed to pale slightly at the mention of working with the elder gods. He was already nervous about the entire ordeal he'd been through, now this was just dropped in his lap.

"Pour ne pas s'inquiéter, Keiichi. It will be a while before you will be moved there."

Keiichi could see Skuld nodding in the background to confirm the previous statements made by the two goddesses.

"I guess…They sure run a tight schedule around here don't they?"

Urd smirked slightly while giving Keiichi an odd look, "You have no idea."

He turned to look at Peorth, who also seemed to have a knowing smile plastered on her face. It was when he looked at Skuld and saw the strange look she was giving both the older women that something he'd wished to discuss came back to the forefront of his thoughts.

"So…what happened earlier? You know, at the mall."

"What happened? What do you mean?"

"Oh c'mon Urd, you don't think I'm blind do you? Why were you and those gods glaring at each other?"

Urd seemed to wince as she looked towards Skuld for help, only to find her younger sister shaking her head.

"Well Keiichi…It's kinda like this…" Urd rubbed the back of her neck slightly and sighed, "Many gods weren't very fond of you in the first place. Now that you've actually become one, it's started up some feelings of resentment in a few others."

"Why? Is there a problem?"

"No…not at all really."

Peorth nodded in confirmation, "Oui, but there are many deities that croyez that gods should be born gods. En d'autres termes, they do not like gods that are not of pure blood."

"So…basically they don't like me because I was given this role?" All three ladies nodded, "Great…just great. No time has passed at all, and I've already done something that makes others look down on me."

"No Keiichi, you didn't do anything. Those idiots just believe in the wrong ideals. Whether or not deities are pure blooded doesn't matter to most, just a select few."

Keiichi raised his eyebrow, "And just how many is that 'select few' hm?"

Urd scratched the side of her cheek with a finger with a thoughtful look, "I don't know the exact figure, but I'd say about two to three hundred of them."

Keiichi seemed to shrink slightly as he sighed, "Just great…"

Peorth laid a reassuring hand on his shoulder, "Acclamation vers le haut, Keiichi. After all, you have favor with many gods here already. I'm sure they will offer their support si vous demandez."

"Really?" Keiichi seemed to perk up slightly.

"Oui, mon ami. Would I lie to you?"

Keiichi seemed to grin as he saw the looks on Urd and Skuld's faces, "I guess not. Thanks for the support ladies."

Peorth smiled, "Quand Keiichi, mon ami."

"So, now that this is out of the way, and flower girl got to see you again, lets get back to Bell. She's probably got something set up by now."

Keiichi looked over his shoulder in the direction they'd come, "You really think so?"

Urd grinned once again, "Knowing that girl, she's probably gone all out."

Peorth blew a kiss to Keiichi as she turned and started to float away, "Au revoir, mes amis."

As Peorth slowly faded out of sight, the occupants of the field looked at each other.

"Well, let's get going kids."

Urd put a hand behind both Keiichi and Skuld and started pushing them towards their destination.

After a few moments, all three were walking on their own accord. Urd turned to look at Keiichi, only to realize he was still looking around everywhere.

"So Kei, what do you think so far?"

Keiichi turned to look directly at her. Urd found his stare quite unnerving with piercing blue eyes.

"It's a beautiful place. I'm still rather surprised that I'm here."

"Oh don't worry about it. You'll get used to it soon enough. Just try to relax before they put you through the wringer."

Keiichi grinned slightly and nodded, "I'll keep that in mind."

As the time passed, no one said a word. However, it was a comfortable silence that followed all three to their destination. Home.

A/N: Wow, it's been a while hasn't it? Took me a couple minutes of actually re-reading my own works and looking at notes to come up with the rest of this chapter.

I don't have a clue when the next update will come, but it won't be 5+ months.

I also have to say I'm rather surprised at the crowd I've attracted. I thank everyone that reads these fictions and give praise to two of my readers who I consider to be great authors. Thanks to Slayer6 and Thaylien for showing interest.

And Slayer, you already do great work in terms of cliff hangers :P
